Social Impact Assessment (SIA) and Social Impact Manifestation
The Social Impact Assessment (EvIS) or Social Impact Manifestation (MIS) is an essential service that ZEa Social Consultancy offers to identify, analyze, and manage the effects that a project may generate on communities, interest groups, and the social environment. This process is key to ensuring sustainability, social acceptance, and regulatory compliance of any initiative, especially in regulated sectors such as energy, infrastructure, mining, agro-industry, and real estate development.
What is a Social Impact Assessment (SIA)?
The Social Impact Assessment is a systematic process of research, planning, and management that allows anticipating both the positive and negative impacts—foreseen and unforeseen—that a project may have on lifestyle, culture, community cohesion, health, well-being, and local governance.
The SIA includes the active participation of communities and stakeholders, ensuring that their voices are considered in decision-making, as well as in the design of mitigation strategies and maximizing benefits.
